Most of the "network effects" we observed over the last 30 years are the effect of the credit bubble unleashed by the Federal Reserve, not some natural consequence of the "free market". Bubbles concentrate! They concentrate industry, concentrate wealth and concentrate people.

AI code capabilities are getting better and better. One criticism is "AI is now quite good at generating new code but it is not as good in helping us with a large existing code base" and that is valid. Now I have started to wonder if the answer is "If AI makes us 100x

My mother asked me today (in Tamil) "What is this AI, AI everyone is talking about? Are you doing it? You are traveling and speaking at so many events, do you give enough time for work?" I said "Amma, speaking at events is also work" but she was skeptical. Now the pressure is

In defense of Sarvam.ai, I will point out that there is no product we have built that was ever an instant hit. Even when we were the first mover in a new market and we had done a lot of technical work, we only got slow traction. Instant success is neither necessary

This story shows how much talent is there in Bihar. Aspiring entrepreneurs should take note - if you want to be seriously successful in 20 years, you will look at the youthful talent pool in Bihar.

On the subject of AI and jobs: Hypothetically, if all software development were to be automated - I want to emphasize that we are _nowhere_ close to that goal - and all software engineers such as myself are out of work, it is not like human beings will have nothing to do. The

I submitted the content of my previous post on AI and employment to Google Gemini. Link below. It expands on what I said and adds some nuances (like the cost of energy to produce the goods or run the AI, which are substantial and won't be zero). g.co/gemini/share/1…

Any large organization, be it a large company or government, is subject to the "head does not know what the tail is doing" problem. Whatever schemes or projects that governments envision at the central or state level, by the time they reach a remote village, they get diluted,

Today the monsoon winds are so strong in our village, a palm tree fell. These are very strong trees, so strong they are used in traditional homes as cross beams. They even withstand cyclones. This one appears to have a weakened base when we examined it. This is on the path I

There cannot be any national sovereignty without technology sovereignty.

So many of our employees commute to and from the office in Force Motors vans. I am typing this from one right now! We are very happy to partner with them. Thank you Force Motors!🙏

There is a vast Bharat that is not obsessed about prestigious credentials, not obsessed about speaking perfect English, not obsessed about enrolling 11 year old kids (yes!) in JEE or NEET coaching and not obsessed about the stock market - it is talent from that Bharat that has
